change to Firefox, go to tools, options, chooses downloads on the left pane and select the redirected my documents folder you are talking about. of course this is not a secure or long lasting solution but it works! I dunno how to do this for IE.

Seems i misunderstood this. Create the users OU and assign a group policy policy to this OU. When you do, create the folder on the server and give the said users full rights. Then under User Configuration\Windows Settings\Folder Redirection In the Properties of the folder, you can choose Basic or Advanced folder redirection, and you can designate the server file system path to which the folder should be redirected.

The %USERNAME% variable may be used as part of the redirection path, thus allowing the system to dynamically create a newly redirected folder for each user to whom the policy object applies.
